Usage
Information
Using the following example of a static route: ip route 33.33.33.0 /24 tengigabitethernet 1/1 172.31.5.43
The software installs a next hop that is not on the directly connected subnet but which recursively
resolves to a next hop on the interfaces configured subnet. In the example, if tengig 1/1 has an ip
address on subnet 2.2.2.0 and if 172.31.5.43 recursively resolves to 2.2.2.0, Dell Networking OS installs
the static route.
When the interface goes down, Dell Networking OS withdraws the route.
